Discord is embedded with a unique feature known as reaction roles, which is used to assign roles to members in a respective server quickly. This feature will be useful for assigning roles based on user interests, such as assigning a “muted” role to users that have been reported for inappropriate behavior and others.
Additionally, reaction roles can be used to quickly give access to various roles to private channels and customize permissions, add colors to usernames, change fonts, and many more.
